TG, Sorry to hear all the bad luck, My Prayers are with you. On the smoker, I bought one of those combination grill that has a smoker box around $380.00 here. I love the Gas and charcoal sides, but haven't had anything good turn out with the smoker. I tried Brisquet several times, and a rack of pork ribs this weekend. The Chicken and Burgers went over great, most of the pork ribs were de-boned and given to the dogs.

Larry.. What do you think is the problem?? To much heat.. not enough..

Looks like i will be buying a smoker.. The 32 inch casing i was going to use for my smoker got turned into two fire pits. The fella wanted one for his yard at home and one for his lake lot. He offered me a stupid amount of money so now i will buy a more sensible sized smoker... Some day i will buy the monster that i dream of.. For now.. i will buy one..

I think....... hmmm, I time the chicken and burgers with a couple cans of beer, works well, I think the smoker requires too much beer.

Yea, the cook.

Do any of you folks use a cold smoker? The one where the fire is separate from the meat?

[Amigatec]

I do sort of cold smoking for cheese. I use a pan of ice under the cheese to keep the temps down.

Does it have to be portable?  Our Tennesee connection (DIL's Dad) uses a smoker made out of cinder blocks..  It takes a bit of work to use as you need to burn the wood in an old 55 gallon drum with a screen above a cut out area in the bottom..  You transfer the ashes to the bottom of the cinder block smoker and cover the thing up with a hunk of metal to keep in the smoke/heat..   It works great I tell ya!!  The chicken & ribs he smoked with hickory had a deee-licious taste to it!  I gotta get back down there for more sometime!!

It has to be more iof a go buy it unload it from the truck and use it...There is no way i can build something with cinderblocks of bricks..
